Sample Planning Worksheets

Schedule Your Upgrade or Clean Installation

The pilot process is iterative. You deploy a limited number of computers in a controlled environment, evaluate the results, fix any problems that arise, and deploy another pilot until you reach the scope and quality that indicate you are ready for a full deployment.

Prioritize Each Member Server for Deployment

Create your own prioritization system for upgrading or installing that allows you to group servers for a phased deployment. You might want to assign a group number or name for each pilot to enable you to later identify the priority of the upgrade or installation server.

The pilot group number or name is: _____________________________________

When do you intend to upgrade or do a clean installation on this particular server? Choose one of the following:

Pilot phase 1 __ Pilot phase 2 __ Production __
